There are also many things belonging to grandpa and grandpa in the villa.
Father Xia Weicheng was silent for a while, and then said: "Son, let's pack up your grandfather's things and deal with them."
"Well, let's keep the tape recorder that my grandpa used to play with. He used to like listening to Peking Opera very much, so it's a thought to keep it." Xia Zekai suggested.
Xia Weicheng agreed.
This busy work took almost two hours to clean up. During this period, Xia Zekai even called Wang Yi and others to help. After getting everything out, he packed it up and left.
"Dad, Mom, go over and have some food first, Xiyun is ready." Xia Zekai suggested.
"Let's go, eat early and go to bed early, we still have work tomorrow." Xia Weicheng said.
…
Two days passed in a row.
In the past two days, both traditional TV stations, newspapers, and major Internet social platforms have continued to report on the success of Alibaba's IPO.
On September 19, the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Jack Ma and eight lucky participants of the Alibaba ecosystem rang the bell together, and the opening price was set at US$93.9. In the following day of trading, Alibaba's highest stock price reached
99.9 US dollars, almost ruined, a very special number.
I don’t know why it didn’t break through directly, or maybe there wasn’t enough volume trading at the beginning?
After reaching this peak, the stock price began to fall, but it remained above 94 US dollars throughout the day, and the final closing price was 94.8 US dollars. This also proved the strength of Alibaba's stock in the capital market, and investors
High recognition for him.
However, on the next day, Alibaba's stock price opened lower and moved lower, but the decline was not significant and remained above $93 throughout the day.
On the third day, the stock price fell slightly, but the lowest price was above 91 US dollars.
At this time, outside reports on Alibaba, a stock that had just been listed on the New York Stock Exchange, did not knock it down because of its price drop. Instead, because the decline for two consecutive days was not large, it attracted more investors.
When the opportunity comes, they believe that there is enough volume at the bottom to support it, and even if Alibaba's stock falls, the room for decline will be limited.
Based on this consideration, more people choose to buy the bottom when the stock price falls.
At the same time, there are more and more reports on Alibaba Group, Jack Ma and others on the Internet. Anyone with a discerning eye will know at a glance that there is an element of hype, but at this time no one has come out to clarify.
While there was a lot of noise on the Internet, Ma Yun, who had not been seen for the past two days, appeared in Qicheng. He was well armed and was not recognized by others. Then he drove Ma Yun's car directly into the Purple Jade Garden Villa.
In Xia Zekai's villa.
In the past two days, Xia Zekai and Luo Xiyun did not go to the company. The couple rested and adjusted at home. Xia Zekai was not surprised at all when seeing Ma Yun appear in the villa.
When he was in Xiajiazhuang, Xia Zekai received a call from Ma Yun. Ma Yun said on the phone that he would come to see him after returning from the United States.
"Jack, sit down quickly!" Xia Zekai took Ma Yun into the villa, and Luo Xiyun helped them make tea.
"How is it? Doesn't it feel good after becoming the richest man?" Xia Zekai teased him.
With a sad look on his face, Ma Yun waved his hand and said, "Please stop saying a few words. I've been bored to death these past two days."
"What's going on? Who else dares to mess with you at this time?" Xia Zekai was quite surprised.
Although the richest man in China who has not yet made the list has a lot of merit, it also represents his own status to a certain extent.
Moreover, Lao Ma is not only a businessman, he also has a very complicated background.
Logically speaking, Lao Ma shouldn't be like this.
Ma Yun vomited his bitterness: "What else could it be? Those who are fighting against the autumn wind are here at this time."
"But they don't know that I don't have much cash in my hands. They all think that I have too much money and have nowhere to spend it."
Xia Zekai immediately understood that what Ma Yun was talking about was probably some kind of charity-like fund organization. Seeing that he had become the richest man, he naturally wanted to ask him to donate some money.
For Jack Ma or Xia Zekai, donating money is not a problem. The problem is that after they donate the money, what happens to the money?
This has always been an unclear question.
Xia Zekai thought for a moment and then said: "Why don't you set up a charity fund by yourself, and I will donate some money to you then."
Who knew that Ma Yun seemed to be waiting for him here. When he heard Xia Zekai say this, Ma Yun replied: "Boss Xia, how about we set up a charity fund together!"
Hearing Ma Yun's statement, Xia Zekai thought for a while and finally refused. He said: "Jack, let's put it this way, Jingtong Development Co., Ltd. has now established 3 public welfare funds. Including Jingtong Scholarship and Jingtong Student Assistance
Fund, and the Jingtong Charitable Foundation.”
"The company donates as little as several million to as much as tens of millions in this area every year..."
Hearing what Xia Zekai said, Ma Yun had nothing to say. Compared with Xia Zekai, his donation was really small.
The most important point is that Xia Zekai has a lot of cash flow, while Jack Ma only has stocks with a high book value.
At this point, the gap between the two is huge.
Ma Yun did not continue to discuss the charity fund with Xia Zekai. He asked Xia Zekai another question.
Regarding his desire to continue to invest in Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd.
Before going to the United States, Jack Ma discussed with Xia Zekai that he wanted to invest in Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd.
At that time, Xia Zekai opened his mouth and offered a 5 times premium. Ma Yun felt that he might have suffered a loss, so he did not agree.
But after Xiaoai Technology's only product, "Generation Xiaoai Classmates Version 1.0", was officially launched for sale, Jack Ma knew what kind of gold mine he had missed.
Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd. has just begun to develop, and Jack Ma feels that it is not too late to invest in it now.
But if he still feels that Xia Zekai's bid is too high and is reluctant to spend the money, he feels that he will really miss out on this gold mine in the future.
When the time comes, I won’t regret it and won’t even have time to cry.
"Boss Xia, please make a price. You name the number and I promise you won't hesitate." Ma Yun was particularly happy this time. He knew how to deal with the consequences.
Sometimes if you want to get more, you have to be willing to spend money.
Moreover, this time Alibaba Group went public, Jack Ma and other management of the company took advantage of this rare opportunity to directly sell 18.7 million ordinary shares. According to the transaction price at that time, they directly cashed in cash flow of US$1.8 billion in bonuses.
Most of them were cashed out by Jack Ma.
To put it simply, Jack Ma is really rich now. He now has at least more than 1 billion US dollars in cash flow.
This is a very considerable amount of money, and if you use this money to invest in potential projects, you will never go to any disadvantage.
But the only project that Jack Ma is optimistic about now is Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd.
Relatively speaking, this is the best time to invest in shares. Otherwise, when Xiaoai’s sales are getting better and better, and more and more funds are flowing back, Xiaoai Technology Co., Ltd. will be operating on its own.
If you love technology, you will not be short of money.
Xia Zekai looked at Ma Yun with a half-smile. He knew that Ma Yun came to him directly without rest after returning from the United States. He must have his own purpose.
For a person like Jack Ma who keeps saying "I don't like money", five words are the best way to describe him, that is, "I can't afford it without profit."
Obviously, investing in Xiaoai Technology is the purpose of Jack Ma’s visit this time.
But now and then, the situation is different from the last time. Now Xia Zekai can't make a decision directly on his own.
The first batch of products for pre-sale in August, after they went on sale on August 25, more than 600,000 units of Xiao Ai were delivered in just a few days to the end of August, and then in early September, the remaining
The pre-sale sales volume below has been delivered.
The problem is that the sales growth of Xiao Ai did not fall into stagnant growth as the pre-sale discount disappeared. Instead, as the products in the pre-sale stage reached the hands of users, a large number of "Xiao Ai Fun Guide" appeared on the Internet.
》.
At this time, Xiao Ai was simply being fooled by all kinds of Shatuo netizens. Because of this, more netizens who had not yet bought this product saw the Shatuo food related to Xiao Ai on the Internet.
, none of them could pull out their eyes. They felt that they had missed a treasure, which aroused their deep desire to buy a Xiaoai classmate.
After entering September, Xiao Ai's sales increased instead of decreasing, and the increase was astonishing.
Fortunately, during this period, the people arranged by Zhang Xu found two new OEM factories.
On the basis of the original four foundries, plus these two large-scale electronic product foundries with a daily assembly capacity of more than 10,000 units, it is possible to achieve a monthly foundry output of over one million units.
Xiaoai, which was unable to further increase sales due to production constraints, has ushered in a more glorious development stage after its total OEM production exceeded one million.
Because of this, Ma Yun knew that it was no longer easy to ask for a price.
He lost his early negotiating advantage and was now in a passive situation. He wanted to gain something, but he also had to be prepared for a heavy hemorrhage.
Having gained a lot of benefits from the listing of 'Alibaba Group', Xia Zekai is not an unkind person. He gave Lao Ma a promise. Xia Zekai, Zhang Yiming, Liang Rubo and Kaiyun Investment discussed increasing capital.
At that time, they can reserve a quota for Lao Ma, but Lao Ma will not be able to increase capital according to their price at that time.
Ma Yun agreed without saying a word this time. Although he would still suffer some losses, there is an old saying among the people: "Suffering a loss is a blessing!"
